putting a banner in the signature area - how?

[TurboGrafxer AKA DCer]

how do you put the banners in your signature on here? i'd like to put that real-time collection stat banner in mine and i have no idea how to do it.

Download the Txt file I've attached and copy all of the text on it.

Paste this into your signature box in your forum profile information which is found at the top of the page 4th tab under the red banner when your in the forum:

Replace the first link with your collection profile if you'd rather that instead, the first link is the one that people go to when they click your banner.

Enjoy

Here you go:

Code:

[url=http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/collection.pl?action=profile&name=DreamCaster&folder=Collection][IMG]http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/banners.php?banner=collectionstats;user=DreamCaster[/IMG][/url]

Generates:

[img width=468 height=60]http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/banners.php?banner=collectionstats;user=DreamCaster[/img]

OK it works on here again but I cant get it to work on other forums. One is because they dont allow images not sure sure on the others.

The code I posted is Forum Code for SMF, you'd need to find out the image code for forum X.

Edit: Some forums will not allow the image to appear as a direct link. If that is the case you will need to save the image to some place like photobucket and link to that image.

Yeah, I saved mine to photobucket & that worked fine for posting it in my signature on DP
